I recall having an win 3.11 VM and running Cassandra Galleries in it, got funny graphics and installing vmadditions fixed it, so I'm remembering from this experience.

Also today I found (by googling) how to make Windows 3.11 start up atomatically upon starting the guest - just add "win" to the very last line in the autoexec.bat file - tried this, it worked!

I know the part about fixing the funny graphics after installing Cassandra Galleries has something to do with either installing/updating the s3 video driver in Virtual PC - and if this is all that's involved for this kind of situation (as with Cassandra Galleries) how/where do I do this or get it?

I had since forgotten (but remembered a moment ago) that I had the s3 driver, sb16 driver backed up on a CD from several years ago when I installed Win 3.11 into DOSbox - how could I have completely forgotten this yesterday when I kept trying in vain? (smacks head).

From this CD backup I installed both the s3 and sb16 drivers - the whole thing went without a single problem, no frustration nor "trying in vain" at all.
